Excessive use of the whip?  She just missed winning.

Saudi news report: Saudi Racing Commission decision to suspend jockey applauded.


 According to reports the morning after the world\'s richest thoroughbred horse race, runner-up Midnight Bison was found curled up in the corner of her stall despondent and unable to eat. Longtime groom and veteran of the gulf war was nearly in tears when quoted \" before yesterday I\'ve never seen anything so brutal and inhumane in my life\".
